Gorgeous Redheads

As I'm thinking about coloring my hair (again) RED (again) I looked up some famous and fabulous Redheads, here they are:
First of all the one and only Mrs. Jessica Rabbit!




The most well known Redhead of our times (or of the Sixties in NYC, Madison Avenue):
Joan Holloway/Harris (Christina Hendricks)





A young and gorgeous redheaded singer: Paloma Faith



and another British Redhead of our days:
Kate Nash


My personal favourite: Shirley Manson of Garbage


And one of the greatest women of Hollywood: Katherine Hepburn


But the best of all, my favourite Redhead of all times was my Mom. She was a real Redhead and she was a very beautiful women and I miss her every single day of my life since she passed away...

LOVE❤

Flower Power Cat

Here's the creative output of my weekend:
I made a cat!
Out of some vintage 70ies-fabric and little flowers I crocheted and a boa because every cat needs a little glamour, don't you think?

Art and Color, an Hommage to Andy Warhol

I am obsessed by colors, some colors can, just like music or a certain smell or taste, provoque emotions that are very strong. Memories of times long ago, very special moments, sometimes pure happiness.
The artist who has always impressed me most is Andy Warhol. He gave art a complete new face, litterally. 
I especially love his portraits and his flowers.
And I like his way of living art in different forms, paintings, prints, photographies, music, general lifestyle and his opinions.

The world fascinates me...

LOVE, LIGHT and more LOVE,
Tanja ♥

PS: my favourite living artist? Someone who uses color the way AW did. I really admire the artwork of
